I still can’t consider it as bad… I find it more in line with the PT and ST.
Anyway, you guys are surely more expert than I am.

What do you think about this?

Thats pretty good! Although I think its leaning more into saturated magenta, which is commonly what the Blu-Rays have. I suggest shifting the colors into a “balanced” version.

Idea: 'From the Earth to the Moon' - "Despecialized" Cut
Time

Just over a week ago I heard about the coming release of HBO’s “From the Earth to the Moon” to Blu-ray in time for the 50th Anniversary and straight away I was excited for it.

When I got it home, I immediately played it and realized that something didnt look right. The original VFX shots that were created in SD have all been redone, and at first I thought it was an improvement, until I got to see that many, many things were wrong.

One of them I caught was the descent stage portion of the Lunar Module in Part 6 was completely reversed, and the 3d model of the Lunar Module used in the remake didnt even match up to the set version unlike the original VFX.

So I took matters into my own hands and try my hand to see if I was able to restore the original VFX of “From the Earth to the Moon” and possibly upscale them to match to Blu-Ray quality.

The ‘Custom Special Edition’ That Almost Wasn’t, But Then Was (Released)
Time

Longtime lurker here, just hovering a suggestion over from the ANH:RHD thread,
is it possible to recomposite the speeder scene? (the scene which comes right after the Obi-Wan mind trick in the OUT) Like, removing the ronto blocking in the way while still preserving some elements. (such as the SE shadow at the bottom of the speeder, shuttle flying behind the vaporators)

STAR WARS: Last Jedi (The Anti-Cringe-Cut) (Released)
Time

I’ve seen the clips over there at the Fanedit Forums and I wanted to say how amazing this project is.

One suggestion though, I think change you did to not have Luke throwing the saber is a bit clunky.

I suggest to use the moving shot of Luke holding the lightsaber, and the reaction shot from Rey, and cutting it off from there to the wide shot of the village.

You can use a different soundtrack to help lead in the way to that wide shot.

General Star Wars <strong>Random Thoughts</strong> Thread
Time

While watching TLJ, I found out that there was more foreshadowing than I saw at the theater.
For example, Kylo’s saber flies into the air and land on his feet spinning, which gave him the idea of killing Snoke that way.
A similar (meta-ish) instance of this is when R2 shows Luke the old hologram of Leia, then later, Luke shows his force projection to Leia.
